Of Mice and Men Ideas, Writing Prompts, and Projects
(Special thanks to all the teachers and sources for these ideas.)
You will find the ideas and prompts herein will range from concepts to questions to projects, in no particular order or ratio. Some can be done from various angles; others, in one specific way. Some can even be combined. Keep in mind that many of these may only be done by one person in the class while some can be duplicated because their approaches can be different. Challenge yourself and be creative.
Of course, your first, best option is to just make up a study all by yourself. Unfortunately, this can be quite difficult, so if you need some ideas, just keep on reading. Oh, and if you do think of a great one yourself, don’t be surprised to see it show up on this list someday!
This is a story about people, their friendships, their plans, their dreams. What was George and Lennie’s dream? How does their dream represent everyone’s dream? And, as a representation of everyone’s dream, what does the development and ultimate fate of their dream mean for each of us?
The title of this work is an allusion to a line from a Robert Burns poem, To a Mouse.
Discuss the ethics and/or morality of this book. George’s action at the end is obvious and will probably dominate your discussion, but there are certainly other ethical/moral dilemmas throughout the book.
Critics claim this story possesses dramatic intensity, stark realism, and deep sympathy. Explore those concepts as revealed by the book.
Prove: Foreshadowing is used in this story to build suspense and to make later actions more credible.
Explore any theme you like. Some can be found herein, but others I’ve left out so you can find them yourself. If you get completely stuck and just don’t like any of the themes in this list, ask me about some others.
This is a story about the loneliness and rootlessness of men on the road.
This book can cause considerable reader resistance due
